Midnight Sports


Thanks to the new PS3 MOVE! Yes, I am finally getting into sports. Answering to my Auntie Amy’s constant nags, I am sweating it out almost every night playing highly competitive sports. Last week, I nearly suffered a heart attack by competing 24 rounds of table tennis matches! Tonight, I invited 2 other “obese” buddies of mine to sweat it out at my house. Watch their game of beach-volley ball. Trust me, we take our sports very very seriously. (For those who think this is just a dildo-looking gadget, I dare you to try 1 hour of intense limb moving acts without perspiring. The sports games are highly entertaining and exhilarating. It is a good start for weak lungs like us!)

Catch of the Day

(Photo Taken – Jetty at Po Toi Island, Hong Kong – A portable “catch container” with battery-operated air pump to keep the catch alive. This is certainly refreshing for non-fisherman like us. It is kinda small though.)

Beerly Artistic

(Photo Taken: Central Pier, Hong Kong – An installation art of beer bottles. No idea what is the concept as it is still work in progress. Maybe Harshad should do a display with his Minute Maid bottles)

Love Bites



(Photo Taken – In our kitchen – Heart-shaped vegetables and mushroom. Now, I know why Felicia’s dishes are so tasty and beautiful.)

Donate a Smile

(Photo Taken: Canon’s Donate a Smile Booth at Causeway Bay, Hong Kong – Just step into this Photo-taking Booth and smile! The computer will then post an animated “avatar” of your smiling headshot on the giant screen outside. For every smile taken, Canon pledged to donate HK10 to WWF. See if you can spot Felicia, Tracy and me below.)

Batman on the bus

The Dark Knight is back in Hong Kong! Not in his usual fancy Bat-Mobile (as the jam in Hong Kong is notorious and also 超人不會飛), BFatman Junior is taking the public bus this time! Together with him is a group of uncanny foreign “Action Heroes”! Meet the Red PussyCats, the Green Mosquito and the Black-Eyed Pee! They have blended in perfectly amongst the crowd. No one in the bus seems to give a damn on their unusual appearance. (though some rolled their eyes when Batman put on his costume.)

Cool 3D News!

Watch some of these headliners in 3D by Asia’s largest 3D animation studio – “Next Media Animation”! They have created many pretty comical and creative news-reporting! Check out their “Weather Girl” section too! For more, visit NMA website at http://www.nma.tv/




Mermaid and The Lion

(Photo Taken: In a tourist shop in Singapore – Surely, shouldn’t we keep the Mermaid’s top and the Lion’s hind legs and tail as the order of the name suggests – MER..LION?)

Completely Lost

(Photo: LOST Blue Ray Limited Edition Collection – 6 exciting years, I am still so completely LOST in love with this show! Amazon is superb – Ordered this on Tuesday and I got it on Friday! Inside this collector’s edition: Extra 32 hours of bonus footage on 36 Blue Ray discs (117 Episodes), a replica of the Lost Island, Lost Board Game, Complete 6-Season Episode Guide Book and other Lost collectibles. Ah…. So good to be Lost again.)

FaceTime



FaceTime – 3G Video-Calls aren’t new. Forget about the slow 3G video calls cos’ Apple’s new FaceTime provides a simpler and more user-friendly interface than Skype and other jerky video-conferencing handsets. Gone are the days when you need a PC (and many steps) to connect with the world. Video-call with your loved ones is just one button away – as easy as making a normal phone call! Thanks to the new iPhone 4 and high-speed WIFI – it is super-handy and mobile! You can walk around and chat! Plus the video quality & connection is smooth!

Often, I have to sms my sister to get her standby online (via Skype) for our weekly video-calls. If she is not around at home, I have to wait till she is back before I can chat online with my old folks. With FaceTime, I just need to dial my dad’s number and we can see and hear each other on our own screen. It is so convenient and free!

Best of all, it is (temporary) available via WIFI network at this moment – meaning my wife/boss/clients can’t FaceTime me when I am "WIFI-LESS" at the pubs or bars. Enjoy while it lasts! (My wife is getting mad about Mac…cos her hubby is becoming an Apple Salesman now!)
